Description
-----------------------------------------------------
ACTIVE SERVICE
This sub is being actively improved on a regular basis and will be looked over when new updates are released
-----------------------------------------------------

Ingame description:
The Type 10S-UP48 “Rattler” is a vessel made out of the necessity for a light and agile courier able to transport high value cargo on the down low. With its hefty stealth module, one has probably already passed right under your nose without you noticing. Captains have described it as “Unimpressive in size, but effective with the proper technique”. Slow and steady or speed and power are both approved use cases for this submarine.

Tier 1
Price: 5000
Class: Scout
Cargo Capacity: 4 crates
Recommended crew size: 2-3
Recommended crew experience: Intermediate
Dimensions: 33x11m

Notable features:
-High speed and agility
-Advanced passive sonar, greatly extends the range and effectiveness of passive sonar
-Universal exterior light switch
-One self-controlled battery that sets its own charge rate
-Two engines placed outside of the hull giving a combined 600 force
-3 hull sealant charges fitted to the engines


A starter alternative to the Dugong. This sub doesn’t work to well with ai as they have problems repairing the outside engines, but it’ll still run and wont sink if one engine gets knocked out. I recommend having some experience before using.

Note: Containers are not autofilled so mod items will not spawn in them.
Made for campaign

Thank you for the kind reply, the decision to place the engines outside the hull was mainly for cosmetic reasons and because its unique but also to balance it against the dugong. I wish I could quickly make another larger sub that has engines outside but creating subs is a very time consuming and I have other projects in the works. Hope you enjoy the sub nonetheless.

having the two engines outside the main haul is an awesome idea! Very cool sub. It would be cool if you made a second slightly larger sub with a fabricator that also has engines on the outside, so that way after we make some money doing quests we can upgrade to that sub, since this one seems like its mostly for early game. This one still looks great tho, cant wait to try it out
